Dear @RonanFarrow: should tech execs also remove anything advocating violence by US, Israel & allies, or is that OK?http://www.washingtonpost.com/posteverything/wp/2014/07/10/farrow-why-arent-youtube-facebook-and-twitter-doing-more-to-stop-terrorists-from-inciting-violence/?hpid=z11 …

@RonanFarrow Please answer my question first, but for yours: no, I don't want private corps deciding what political speech is OK.

@ggreenwald: I distinguish between calls to murder ethnic group & combative political speech. And would never countenance censoring latter.

Phew! So glad

@RonanFarrow@ggreenwald Speech should never be censored no matter how odious. Where do we draw the line? Who decides? -
@RonanFarrow To that end, how would you expect social media to handle some of the American propaganda from WWII? -
@RonanFarrow@ggreenwald : We need to deal the cause of destructive messages rather than try to cover them up or remove them.
